Jumbled Salads
The words we use are very important.
Very few realize this.
The human experience is pretty basic.
From an objective, engineering standpoint.
We want things.
We will always want things.
And these things are only under a few categories.
Love, money, sex, health, social validation.
But these things are also wanted by others.
And these things take time, effort, energy, and risk.
And they all involve something called opportunity costs.
Once you start down a path to hopefully getting ONE thing, that precludes you from chasing other things.
Pick One
A dog cannot chase two rabbits.
He must choose which rabbit to chase.
The more we desire something, the more effort it will take.
And the more we desire something, chances are the more others are going to desire that same thing.
Everybody wants the hottest guy or gal in the club.
Everybody wants that top job.
All those things take time.
Which means we ALWAYS have doubt.
What if I try and fail?
Two Endpoints
What if I try, and succeed, and it’s not nearly as awesome as I thought?
Famous people often have this problem.
They spend their entire lives chasing a dream.
Fame or riches.
But then they get there and it’s not quite what they thought.
Perhaps even worse.
This is why they say there are two tragedies in live.
Not getting your goals.
And getting your goals.
If you ever get either it’s pretty depressing.
Still having plenty of life left, but accepting that you’ll NEVER get your goals is harsh.
Forward Momentum
But actually getting your goals, and realizing they are not NEARLY as awesome as you’d expected may be even worse.
Much better to stay in the middle.
Chasing continuously INCREASING goal.
What does this mean?
Let’s say you have a medium term that is about a year out.
A goal you DON’T see as the main accomplishment of your life.
One that is life that is a year better than now.
So you grind forward a year.
And in one year, your life is BETTER than it was a year ago.
Because it is always now, and never then, you’ll always be in the same state.
Where you look back, and see that life NOW is better than a year ago.
Year By Year
And life in a year will be better than NOW.
Because you are always in a state of forward momentum.
Towards better money.
Better love.
Better health.
Better whatever.
